Does that youtube video ranking method still working

Does that youtube ranking method still working?? where people unlist the video and send views on it and then make it public and it comes on 1st page off youtube is that method still working have any body tried it today or yesterday

NO . Videos get flagged by competitors pretty soon and eventually taken down.

It works on some cases. In some cases the video stays on top for one-two days and then move out of the search results. And in some cases videos get taken down.

It still works but for limited time I have tried this method for the last 3 -4 days. The video gets to the first page but stays there for at max 2-3 days and dropped to the second page and so on.

But if you can get some likes comments and stuff on it I think it will be on top for more than 2 days (haven't tried it yet). As for competitors flagging the video I haven't noticed that at all so I don't know how people think that happens but as I said I have a video on top for 2 days and did not have any flagging, and my keyword had a niche with 500Ksearch hits so.

It's not patched
however how are you going to feel if you work hard to rank your video and lets say some douchebag 14 years old kid uses the unlisted method ? Aren't you going to flag him.
The only reason Youtube deletes your video is because its target of many angry people. Feel free to use it but don't start thread asking why are your videos deleted within hours.
